Each of these Goals has corresponding Strategies and Initiatives that are focused on completing the Mission and addressing challenges and opportunities on the horizon, with the ultimate goal to help the District to successfully achieve its Mission and Vision. Key Performance Indicators are tracked to evaluate the factors that are critical to the success of the Initiatives. Effective Utility Management The Effective Utility Management (EUM) framework is regarded as the industry standard for strategic planning and performance metrics monitoring. The EUM Framework consists of ten Attributes that describe desired outcomes that are applicable to wastewater utilities. The EUM served as the framework for developing the Strategic Initiatives, and the District's Strategic Plan reflects the structure laid out by the EUM. By design, the Strategic Initiatives are aligned with our Goals and one or more of the ten EUM Attributes. This helps to ensure that the District's priorities are in line with best management practices. Effective Utility Management Attributes ➢ Product Quality ➢ Customer Satisfaction ➢ Employee and Leadership Development ➢ Operational Optimization ➢ Financial Viability ➢ Infrastructure Stability ➢ Operational Resiliency ➢ Community Sustainability ➢ Water Resource Adequacy ➢ Stakeholder Understanding and Support ➢ Strategic Initiative Achievement Strategic Initiative Achievement Summary The following provides a brief description of the level of achievement for each of the Strategic Initiatives and the factors that contributed to their achievement. Attachment No. 1 summarizes the status of each of the Key Performance Indicators. As indicated, all targets, with the exception of one, were met. September 17, 2015 Fiscal Year 2014 -2015 Strategic Plan Annual Report Summary of Achievements Goal 1 Meet Regulatory Requirements for the Good of the Community and Environment Strategy 1: Strive to Achieve 100 Percent Permit Compliance in Air, Water, Land and Other Regulations Meet Existing and Future Requirements for Regulatory Compliance, Energy Efficiency, and Infrastructure Sustainability Achievement: This initiative is continuously ongoing. The District continues to maintain operations to ensure compliance with all permit requirements.

September 17, 2015 Fiscal Year 2014 -2015 Strategic Plan Annual Report Summary of Achievements GOAL 2 ENSURE FINANCIAL STABILITY Strategy 1: Maintain a Fair and Equitable Rate Structure Based on Cost -of- Service Study Results Conduct Cost -of- Service Study and Development of Updated Forecasting and Ratemaking Model Achievement: This initiative was met. This District contracted with Raftelis Consulting Services to conduct a comprehensive Cost -Of- Service Study. The purpose of the Cost -Of- Service Study was to independently assess and evaluate the District's existing wastewater rates to provide a fair and reasonable rate structure and ensure that there is a proportionate recovery of costs from various customer classes. The Board of Directors received the Cost -Of- Service Study on March 5, 2015, and adopted the recommended rate structure and associated rates at the June 4, 2015, public hearing. The rates were calculated using the updated forecasting and ratemaking model developed by Raftelis Consulting Services in conjunction with District staff. Staff is currently working with Raftelis Consulting Services on tailoring the model to suit the District's needs. Meet Revenue Reauirements Achievement: This initiative was met. The rates adopted by the Board of Directors on June 4, 2015, fully meet the revenue requirements of the Operations and Maintenance Fund. Revenue requirements for the Capital Project Fund will be met through a combination of the rates adopted and Reserve Funds. The rate model assumes replenishing the Reserve Funds over the next four years, if not sooner. Adopt Reserves Policv for the District Achievement: This initiative is in progress. Staff made presentations and recommendations at the November 17, 2014, Board of Directors Workshop and the January 20, 2015, Board of Directors Meeting. The recommended policy which includes target reserves is scheduled to be presented to the Administration Committee this Fall. Adopt Debt Management Policy Achievement: This initiative is in progress. Staff is in the process of surveying other District policies and working with the District's financial adviser from Public Financial Management to submit a policy for consideration to the Administration Committee in the current fiscal year. September 17, 2015 Fiscal Year 2014 -2015 Strategic Plan Annual Report Summary of Achievements Strategy 2: Address Unfunded Liability, Minimizing it in the Future Monitor Actuarial Assumptions Used to Determine Unfunded Liabilities Achievement: This initiative was met. John Bartel of Bartel Associates, LLC, prepared the biennial Other Post - Employment Benefits Governmental Accounting Standards Board 45 Report dated January 12, 2015, for FY 2015 -2016 and FY 2016 -2017. Finance staff reviewed the results with the Finance Committee on March 23, 2015. The December 31, 2014, Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association Actuarial Valuation and the Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association Governmental Accounting Standards Board 67 Report were reviewed with the Finance Committee on August 10, 2015. Previously in April, June and July of 2014, John Bartel presented comparisons between the Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association and the California Public Employees' Retirement System and defined benefit plans versus defined contribution plans to the Administration Committee.

Establish Tareet Reserves for Self- Insurance Achievement: This initiative is in progress. Staff made presentations and recommendations at the November 17, 2014, Board of Directors Workshop and at the January 20, 2015, Board of Directors Meeting. The recommended policy which includes target reserves is scheduled to be presented to the Administration Committee this Fall. September 17, 2015 Fiscal Year 2014 -2015 Strategic Plan Annual Report Summary of Achievements Evaluate and Monitor the District's Total Cost of Risk Achievement: This initiative was met. The Total Cost of Risk includes the cost of commercial insurance and self- funded insurance methods; the amounts paid and reserved for claims and litigated matters funded through self- insurance; and personnel and other Operation and Maintenance expenses for the Safety and Risk Management Divisions. The Total Cost of Risk is reduced by the amount of any recoveries; reserve reductions for prior years; investment income from the Self- Insurance Funds; proceeds collected from any first party insured losses; and any dividends from our insurance pool. For FY 2014 -2015, the District's Total Cost of Risk is $4,035,000. This is a significant increase from the previous FY's Total Cost of Risk of $2,520,000. The difference arises from a liability claim that will likely require the full contribution of the District's self- insured retention, the filling of vacancies, and some increased consulting costs for the Safety Program over the past several months. September 17, 2015 Fiscal Year 2014 -2015 Strategic Plan Annual Report Summary of Achievements Goal 3 Develop our Human Capital Resources Strategy 1: Ensure Appropriate Staffing Levels Conduct Benchmarkine Studies to Determine ADDrooriate Staffing Levels Achievement: This initiative was met.

Infrared Thermography - In the process of aquiring new infrared equipment. Have begun the process of expaning Infrared Program to beyond electrical equipment to include mechanical equipment and furnace burner leaks and refractory issues. Vibration Analysis - Acquired additional training. In the process of aquiring new vibration analysis equipment. Have begun the process of including vibration analysis in reoccurring preventive maintenance procedures and not just repairs and new installations. Other - Utilizing ultrasonic probe to detect pressure and vacuum leaks; proper operation of steam traps and valves; arching; tracking and corona in electrical equipment; test bearings in pumps, motors, compressors, etc. Also use ultrasonic thickness gauge to measure the wall thickness to measure the effects of corrosion and erosion in tanks, pipes, boiler tubes, etc. Have purchased a digital low resistance ohmmeter for testing electrical equipment. Have purchased an electrical discharge detector for detecting electrical discharge in electric motor bearing in motors controlled by variable frequency drives that cause electrical erosion, lubricant degradation and ultimately bearing failure. We have begun a program to install grounding rings in equipment where abnormal readings are found. NOTE 3: The District has required OPDs be installed on all side sewer repairs since 2000. The program is currently under review as we have determined that there was some abuse of the program by some contractors taking ODPDs and using them outside the District. The program is being changed to limit it to one OPD discount per customer in our service area. Also, the new program will require issuing a no -cost permit so that we can record the installation. We are also reviewing community outreach for the program. We are considering targeted mailings to properties needing cleanouts, which would identify the property owners' responsibility and the benefits of the OPD program.
